Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.


Early in 2012 I found a lump in my breast which was the start of a rollercoaster ride for me! I was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer and surgery was scheduled one week after diagnosis. I followed up with chemotherapy, radiotherapy and herceptin treatment plus daily dose of Tamoxifen.


I certainly found my inner strength during this difficult period of my life. Having two very young daughters, I was determined to push through the treatment and with the most amazing support from my loving family and friends,. I kept smiling and knew that by staying positive I would see this illness through . Friends Of Anchor were an integral part of supporting me through my treatments.


Last year I hit my 10 year milestone of being cancer free. I am 11 years clear in April 2023 and I am delighted to be strutting my stuff on stage alongside 23 other warriors at Courage on The Catwalk in May to raise vital funds for Friends of Anchor. 


WHEN LIFE DEALS YOU TOUGH SITUATIONS, DON'T THINK WHY ME? INSTEAD THINK TRY ME!!


Every penny of your donation will go towards the ANCHORED Together appeal: the charitys commitment to raise £2 million for additional extras within The ANCHOR Centre, which is currently under constructionand due to open this year.
